Your show host Robert and special guest Chuck Jones. Chuck started out with horses on a ranch in southern California, but that was until his dad took him to see a Midget car race. That was a turning point for Chuck, he started hanging around repair shops learning the hobby and eventually wound up building his own car and racing on the streets, the dry lakes and eventually the newly sanctioned Santa Ana Raceway. Chucks first famous racecar was the "Sidewinder" drag race car, one of the first transverse mounted rear engine dragsters. Chuck was part of the most influential periods in motor racing history through the 50's 60's 70's and 80s. He became a team owner and competed in GT, Can Am, Indy, F5000 and F1 series. Some of the famous drivers that teamed up with Chuck were Skip Hudson, Clay Regazonni, Al Unser, Jackie Ickx, Nelson Piquet, Danny OngiasCris Amon, Roberto Guererro and Peter Revson. Chuck has had an amazing career in racing.
